    Had a discussion with my wife that claimed, as usual, that everything is so much cheaper everywhere else. So I thought I need to find out how the reality looks like, as opposed to the best case that she read about. So my questions are: What type and speed of internet do you have? How much does it cost? Where do you live? (City, suburbia, small town or countryside) I'm having 100Mb fiber that costs approx. $30/month and I live in a suburb.

    I'm having 75Mb fiber that costs $38/month with the current Real/Dollar rate and I live in a state capital, Curitiba. That's very expensive for Brazil standard's, but it's the best internet provider by far. (We have cases of providers offering 50mb, but less then 20mb actually arrives.

      Type=copper Speed= 53 down/4.6 up (with VPN), 106 down, 5.7 up (without VPN) Cost = $95/month (includes 1 phone line) Where live = City (Seattle, WA). We get ripped off here. The city government has divided the city up into zones and there's only a single provider in each zone (unless you want DSL which comes from the phone company). Thus no competition and ridiculous pricing in our high tech city.

        Cable TV + internet ~20 Mbps down, ~3 Mbps up, 28 ms mean latency. I live in a small town in Argentina, so the price varies wildly in USD. Around 40-50 USD last week.

          Poland, a large city. Corrently it's 80 PLN (~19 USD) for 300/30 Mbps optic fiber, but recently they called me with a new offer – 1000/100 Mbps for 20 PLN (~5 USD) more. It's even faster than advertised too, I often get 320/40 Mbps (according to Speedtest).

              Live in the outskirts of a larger (with Swedish standards) city region. My fiber connection was upgraded two weeks ago to symmetric 10Gbps, paying ~$30 during the initial 6 month lower fee, and then jumping up to ~$55 after that.

                  In Pennsylvania, U.S., am paying $201 but it is a bundle with landline (ugh), TV, and Internet @ 100 Mbps with Verizon FiOS.

                      I have to say I'm quite surprised to get an answer to this question several months later. On page 145 no less!
